The YR447 Tissue Embedding and Refrigeration System from Kalstein represents a significant advancement in sample processing for histology laboratories. This equipment is designed to optimize the conservation and treatment of tissues at various stages of the embedding process, offering precision, advanced thermal control, and simplified operation. Its ability to handle large volumes of paraffin and its highly precise temperature control make it an indispensable tool for laboratories seeking to maximize efficiency without compromising the quality of results.
Product Description
The YR447 model stands out for its thermal storage compartment with a 4.5-liter capacity and its 4-liter paraffin chamber, ideal for laboratories with a high sample flow. The versatility of this equipment is reflected in its wide adjustable temperature range, covering from room temperature (RT) up to 85°C for the clamp wells, paraffin chamber, work plate, as well as the paraffin dispenser and thermal plate. The precision of temperature control, which is ±1%, ensures the crucial thermal stability needed during the embedding process.
In addition, the system includes a cryomodule capable of reaching temperatures down to -20°C, with delay protection to prevent sudden temperature fluctuations. This feature is essential for the proper preservation of samples before the embedding process. The paraffin flow control via a touch panel and optional foot pedal provides intuitive operation, reducing errors and improving precision in handling delicate samples.
